Urban Dictionary, Customers

I don’t know if a lot of you are familiar with the site urban dictionary, sometimes when I’m bored I look up words and find the nonsense people have written about such and such word. Most of the time the definitions are quite humorous. I decided to look up ‘customer’, and to my astonishment there were some pretty crude definitions, some that were in my opinion pretty funny.
Here are some that I found amusing,
The number one definition, by Stanzfield on Dec 18, 2005.
“An incredibly stupid person. These people are often found in department and grocery stores and show no signs of common sense. Many times they can be rude, cruel, and obnoxious.
This store has too many horrible customers ruining our job.”

The number two definition by Anonymous on July 22, 2004.

“Barely sentient, shambling creature. Close relative of the Zombie. Generally seen in vicinity of hassled shop staff, shaving points of their IQ with inane banter.
"Excuse me, where are your Dan Brown books?"

And definition number 6 by Adrian, on December 7, 2007.

“Some of the time, they can be very nice. Most of the time, unfortunately, they are pieces of shit that want you to bend the rules just for them. If they complain to your boss, don't bother telling your side of the story because you just can't win.
Customers make my work life horrible.”

I personally thought the second definition made a lot of sense, I myself refer to customers as walking zombies. I mean half of the time they have no reason to be in the mall, they’re just blindly walking and handing over there money...
